<p>In an information processing unit, in particular, in a data flow type information processing unit, an instruction indicates whether operand data for use by this instruction is available. Operand data, both from external storage units and from previously executed instructions, are stored in a data memory while instructions are stored in an instruction memory. An instruction execution unit is started by a control signal when all operands necessary for executing an instruction are available. Instructions and data can be routed independently, thereby permitting more rapid execution of instructions.</p> |
